What would this be considered in HPI?

Thanks
 
It shows no medical necessity for the visit. The insurance carrier if audited could retract payment because it shows no cheif complaint for the visit.

I wouldn't go that far...if this is the daily rounding for the physician in the hospital, he or she does have to visit inpatients daily. As long as there is documentation on an inpatient of improving conditions, there could be payment.
